Many modern Turkish people are descendants of not only Central Asian Turks, some of direct descendants of Greek, Slavic, or Albanian speaking Janissaries.
"In the present study, analyses revealed that Chikhi et al.’s (2001) method represents the closest estimates to the true Central Asian contributions. Based on this method, it was observed that there were lower male (13%) than female (22%) contributions from Central Asia to Anatolia, with wide ranges of confidence intervals. Lower contribution, with respect to males, is to be explained by homogenization between the males of the Balkans and those of Anatolia. In Azerbaijan this contribution was 18% in females and 32% in males."
Janissaries erased the patrilineal legacy of Seljuks in Anatolia, however the patrilineal integrity was preserved in Azerbaijan.
